HC Deb 06 March 1924 vol 170 c1628W
Sir J. LEIGH

asked the Minister of Agriculture what steps he is taking to carry out the recommendation of the Linlithgow Committee with regard to selling prices of meat, milk, and horticultural produce; and whether it is his intention to set up again in some form a consumers' council such as was established under the Ministry of Food?

Mr. SMITH

As regards the first part of this question, I would refer the hon. Baronet to my right hon. Friend's reply on the 28th ultimo to a question put by the hon. Member for Woodbridge (Sir A. Churchman). My right hon. Friend does not contemplate any action as is suggested in the second part of this question.
